What is a Troll? A troll is a person that posts deliberately provocative, nasty or hurtful comments on threads. They may be a person with no previous connection to the board or someone that has created a pseudonym to get their point made.

If you should get a comment made on any thread you post asking for help and advice please realise this comment is not directed at you personally.
We really are all a lovely bunch here (oops, modest, sorry) so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal.

what should i do if i get a comment made on my thread?

firstly do not respond to the comment as this invariably is what the person wants. At the bottom of the post, on the left hand side is a red "warning" triangle. Click this and then "send" the message that comes up. This will report the message to abuse who will review it's content and delete it.

The person we had this morning was particularly vile and nasty and please believe me is an extreme rarity here.
Above all PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE BOARDS. THIS SITE IS AN ASSET TO SO MANY, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT FEELS THE WORLD IS FALLING IN ON YOU. THERE IS SUCH A WEALTH OF ADVICE HERE TO BE HAD THAT THE COMMENTS OF ONE MUST NOT DETER YOU FROM AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE KNOWLEDGE HERE!!!!

It is testament to the work that martin has done and continues to do that so many people give their time knowledge and experience freely to others, without judgement, to lift people out of the depths of debt crisis


Welcome to the debt free wannabe board. A great place for seeking advice and inspiration and support on getting out of debt. Please read the above in case you come across one the very few trolls or more frequent spammers that come our way.

If you find this thread has dropped off page 1 then please do join in and 'bump' us back to the top.

Spoon - 20 books on Grenn Met! Can you rise to the challenge!? (Yes, I will do anything to avoid the tedium of ebay!)

Mind you, there's a few that, if they sell, I will fall off my chair in surprise!

Just about to sneak off to page 2 again were you? Well no you can't :mad: :mad:

I've put the grand total of 2 items on eBay tonight - mind you, guess what one of them was Nicca - yes that's right, it was an

I really must check out this Green Metropolis - I have not used them before and I do have lots of books

niccatw

Oooh 3dogs, just as soon as I declutter, I'll have plenty of room for an

You must relist if it doesn't go this time! (Though how could it possibly not!)

Great thing about listing books on Green Met is that you put in the ISBN and it does the rest, almost. You only get £3 per book, but I doubt I'd get more for mine anyway tbh. And it's better than a kick in the teeth .

Horace

Hi all

Went to see ex OH yesterday (to take the christmas pressie that my parents bought him which I collected from them in March), it was fab because I told him about my battery being held in with an old belt as the clamp no longer fitted due to the rods being too short (battery is taller than the old one), so he took me to homebase to get some threaded rod and then to this massive asda to look at crates so I got one with wheels at one end which is quite spacious and it has a clip on lid - it cost me £10 and was cheaper than the ones I saw in Homebase and it was bigger too. He ended up getting 4 of them for himself. Then it was back to the house to start on making new rods by firstly bending the metal which was first done after heating it over the gas hob in the kitchen. I also have instructions to get myself some 10ml spanners and when I decide that I am not driving for a while told me to disconnect my battery and told me what to do.

Hope y'all are ok (except for trolls..if you're a troll you can b*gga off)

Good evening all, handyman here, hope you are all well. Well done Horace looks like we have a mechanic in the making.

Just finished watching Erasing David on more 4. About a journalist that tries to evade private detectives (it about the data held on each and every one of us) If I wasnt paraniod before I am even more now. It took them 18 days to find him despite his best efforts. I will watch out what I do on the internet and over the mobile from now on.

I Had a great Idea, lets everyone on MSE change our name by deep poll to D. N. Abunk. with a 100k of us on the loose it would give the DCA's a terrific headache, by the time they worked out who was who we would all be SB'd (ok niddy I know it doesnt work like that):) Just handy rambling again.

Still one Monday morning 6am When I was going up in a lift 20 floors with 10 hung over Geordie builders. One had an attack of Gas!:eek:. I said which !!!!er droped that, to which each in turn declared I'm Farticus.

Well off for an early (er) night, after I've looked in on funny money.

Best wishes all, handyman123.

Oh Handyman - I meant to watch that - settled down at 10 pm and it wasn't on - mind you I was looking on Channel 4 not More 4 - eeeeK:eek: I had notice you mention it on another thread and did make a note but had put 4 so Ithought it was on Channel 4 - bet it was good to watch

Hi 3Dogs, found it a bit dry in places but didnt realise that ISP's and mobile phone companys hold records on calls you made and from where, and every web page you visit, for 12 months. This guy sent out 80 SAR's The biggest file the size of yellow pages was from amazon, and had a list of everyone he had ever sent a present to. They caught him at an antenatal clinic with his wife after the investigator rand the hospital gave his wifes D.O.B. and said he had lost appointments paperwork.


The chap who posted the otherday wanting to know how DCA's find people, and who said he had left a trail of red herrings should have watched this. Funnily enough I dont think he's been back.

Anyhow hope you and yours are well, I,m off for a rest, see you all tommorow, best wishes handyman123.
